research Involucrin, but not filaggrin and Kdap mRNA, expression is downregulated in 3-D cultures of intact rat hair bulbs after calcium stimulation
Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research Expression of mineralized tissue associated proteins: Dentin sialoprotein and phosphophoryn in rodent hair follicles
Dentin sialoprotein and phosphophoryn are present in rodent hair follicles and may help hair growth and development.
research Fabrication and characterization of epithelial scaffolds for hair follicle regeneration
Scientists created three types of structures to help regrow hair follicles, and all showed promising results for hair regeneration.
research L ‐Carnitine–L ‐tartrate promotes human hair growth in vitro
L-Carnitine-L-tartrate may help hair grow and prevent hair loss.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
